Data Safebolt Assemblies

¾” BSW Safebolt Assembly - an important safety feature


suitable for use on all standard manlid assemblies.

Use of a safebolt assembly enables the controlled release


of any residual tank pressure by breaking the seal
between the lid and neck whilst retaining the manlid cover,
thus eliminating any possibility of operator injury.

When operating a manlid assembly fitted with a


safebolt, it is important to secure the safebolt first
when closing the manlid and release the safebolt last
when opening the lid.

Simple to operate and may easily be retro-fit.

Data Safebolt Assemblies

Operating Details
IMPORTANT NOTE : All pressure must be relieved from the tank prior to loosening the swingbolt
assemblies. Failure to relieve residual tank pressure may cause the manway cover to blow open
which may result in serious personal injury or death.

Proper use of a safebolt assembly enables the controlled release of any residual tank pressure. When
operating a manlid assembly fitted with a safebolt, it is important to secure the safebolt first when closing
the manlid and release the safebolt last when opening the manlid.

SAFEBOLT WITH RETAINING COLLAR, PART NO. 496/XXXXXX

CLOSED POSITION

In this position, the safebolt retains the


manlid closed, as does a standard
swingbolt. In the event of the handnut
working loose, the retaining collar
(shown in red) will prevent the swingbolt
from pivoting away from the lug bracket,
thus preventing the manlid cover from
LUG BRACKET RETAINING COLLAR opening suddenly due to a build-up of
pressure inside the tank.

RETAINED POSITION

When intentionally unscrewed, the


bottom collar on the handnut forces the
lid to open slightly, even if the gasket is
sticking to the neckring. This allows any
residual pressure inside the tank to vent,
HANDNUT BOTTOM making it safe for the operator to open
COLLAR the lid.

OPEN POSITION

Only when the safebolt has been fully


unscrewed will the retaining collar be
clear of the manlid lug bracket, allowing
the bolt to pivot and the manlid to open
fully.

NOTE : The above instructions are intended only as a guideline. For more detailed information, please refer
to our Manway Operating Instructions, reference OPIN13. Please contact sales@fortvale.com.

Data Manlid Seals
TM

Fort Vale offer an extensive selection of manlid seals to


suit all applications and a range of temperatures.

Standard seal section dimensions are approximately


16mm x 10mm. Alternative dimensions are available as
well as special seals to suit specific manways.

Seals may be fitted into the manlid cover if requested at


the time of order.

A comprehensive range of genuine Fort Vale spare seals


is available from all Fort Vale group companies as well as
from our worldwide network of authorised distributors and
service centres.

Rubber Compounds

Seals moulded from rubber compounds are suitable for many duties. Advantages include :

! Easily cleaned
! Good resilience qualities
! Excellent sealing capabilities
! Economical to replace regularly

Please be aware that many of these compounds are suitable only for specific types of cargo. The temperature range of
each type of rubber must be observed. Please refer to the table overleaf for a general guide to product suitability. For
more specific advice, please contact our Sales team.

Composite Seals

Composite seals have been developed for general purpose tanks where the products carried can vary and therefore,
where a multi-purpose seal is required.

Braided - (NON-GAS TIGHT) PTFE impregnated fibre tightly braided around a silicone core and jointed into a solid ring.
Caution should be taken when fitting rigid seals. Fitting this seal is at the discretion of the tank builder. See note on
reverse for duty.

* NB (see over) This material is lubricant free but does contain a small percentage of residual wetting agents
essential to the PTFE dispersion with which this packing is impregnated. It should be noted that small amounts
of these wetting agents may leach during application.

Super Tanktyt - a virgin PTFE sheath bonded to three sides of a nitrile rubber core offering excellent sealing capabilities
and cleanliness together with suitability for a wide variety of cargoes. It remains gas tight at 6 Bar.

Advantages include:

! Easily cleaned
! Excellent resilience qualities
! Excellent sealing capabilities
! Does not become porous
! Suitable for a wide variety of cargoes and a broad temperature range

Overall, the ”Super Tanktyt” is the ideal sealing solution for the chemical industry. Its rubber core gives flexibility to
ensure a gastight seal and its PTFE envelope gives optimum protection in hazardous cargo applications.
